Abstract |
Objective |
To investigate plasma and synovial fluid (SF) periostin of knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients and to determine the relationship between periostin levels and the radiographic severity.
Methods |
A total of 110 subjects (90 knee OA patients and 20 healthy controls) were enrolled in this study. Plasma and SF periostin were examined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. OA grading was performed using the Kellgren-Lawrence classification.
Results |
Although plasma periostin was greater in OA patients than in controls, the difference was not significant. Additionally, SF periostin was significantly higher with respect to paired plasma (P<0.001). Moreover, plasma and SF periostin demonstrated significantly positive correlation with the radiographic severity of knee OA (r=0.537, P<0.001 and r=0.427, P<0.001, respectively). Subsequent analysis revealed that there was a positive correlation between plasma and SF periostin (r=0.368, P<0.001).
Conclusions |
Plasma and SF periostin levels were positively correlated with the radiographic severity of knee OA.
